The Tiger I is arguably the most built or at least purchased tank type when it comes to models. Academy have announced a late Tiger I in the works in 1/35th scale. I await to read the views of those that know the Tiger Better than I.

It would appear that Academy and Italeri in a show of collaboration have released a limited edition Republic of Korea Marine Corps M47 Patton in 1/35th scale. I am afraid there are not any details other than a series of pictures of the assembled model as I cannot understand Korean.

One of the most enduring APCs and a favourite of modelers must be the M113. Now Academy are set to release a 1/35 scale model of the M113/A3 “OIF” in January 2008 so be warned - don’t max out your credit card over Christmas.
